The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

Can I get some tips on grilling burgers? Tried my hand at it this past weekend for the first time in a while, and I totally fucked it up hah. I used a lot of cayenne pepper, and like a dumbass I thought the redness was the burgers being raw, instead of the spice so I overcooked the hell out of them.
At least my dog got to eat well this week.
I've watched videos and looked at timings and such, but honestly I'm a bit paranoid about eating raw meat, even though I love burgers medium rare. Curious if any grillpillers here can give me some advice.
Get good quality meat, no spices except salt and maybe pepper, you’re making a burger, not meatloaf.
American cheese. No other cheese compares for a burger. Put it on after the flip and close the grill to get it to melt.
Make the grill spitting hot before putting anything on.
Don’t make a dad burger, make those puppies thin. It’s hard to control heat on a grill compared to a skillet, don’t risk a raw middle and a burnt outside.
Don’t worry about undercooking, so what if you eat some undercooked meat? You’ll survive just fine.
